This carp figure is hand-painted by Ceramiche F.L. Orgia in Italy — a workshop known for their ceramic animal figures since the 1960s. Each carp is painted individually, so the shades of yellow and white glaze vary slightly from piece to piece. The figure measures 39 cm long and has a hole on the back for wall hanging but can also stand securely on a shelf or dresser. The porcelain is fired at a high temperature, giving it a durable surface.
Care and maintenance
Dust off with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid water and harsh cleaning agents, as repeated wet cleaning can dull the hand-painted glaze over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between porcelain and ceramic for wall figures?
Porcelain is fired at a higher temperature than regular ceramic (over 1200°C), resulting in a denser and more durable surface. Porcelain figures like this carp are therefore less porous and better withstand moisture if you want to hang it in the bathroom.
Can a porcelain carp hang in a humid bathroom?
Yes, porcelain handles moisture well. Just make sure the hole on the back faces downward so condensation doesn’t collect inside the figure. Wipe it with a cloth after steamy showers to prevent lime spots on the glaze.
How do I hang a ceramic fish on the wall?
Use a screw with a round head (e.g., a wood screw) mounted in the wall. The hole diameter on the back of the carp fits most standard screw heads of 4-5 mm. The wall should support about 500 grams.
Is a hand-painted Italian carp figure a good housewarming gift?
Yes, especially for those who love the Mediterranean or maritime details. The 39 cm size makes it noticeable without taking up too much space, and the yellow/white color fits well in most homes. Wrap it carefully — porcelain is fragile.
Who is Ceramiche F.L. Orgia?
An Italian ceramic workshop from the Orvieto area, specializing since the 1960s in hand-painted animal figures. Their carps, birds, and other animals are still painted manually by local artisans, giving each figure small unique differences in brush strokes and color shades.

Most of my products are handmade or hand-painted. This means that there may be variations in color, finish, and minor imperfections. These variations are a natural part of the handmade look and make each product unique. Minor differences are therefore not considered defects.
